The ability of a television series to make adjustments is something you've got to take advantage of.

It's not a bad way to live once you let go of the idea that you deserve more.

There are always a bunch of ideas floating around and I do the best that I can to try to not do them. The ideas don't go away and, over time, are finally like, "Okay, it's been around so long, I have to get this thing out," and it somehow ends up coming to some version of fruition.

You can never guess or assume what anyone is going to think.

I guess the idea of not wanting to choose to direct a film, for which I've not read a script. It's a tough decision to make without seeing any pages. That's not to say that I don't have all the faith in the world in the spectacular writers.

I'd love to do a movie where the monster is human, where the issue is not otherworldly, or horror or science fiction.

I don't want to do something that is so inside that only die-hard fans will appreciate.
